Patio Door Lock Repair.
Our patio door would not lock. John came the next day on time. He carefully investigated the problem but it was not apparent. However, he continued with his work and found it.
We were both surprised to see that the square metal link had warped slightly, thus throwing the lock mechanism out of sync. John was able to make an adjustment and put the lock back together to now work properly.
He only requested a small payment but we increased it to reflect his skill.

Replace locks to the front and back door.
John was friendly, responsive, extremely quick and efficient. I posted a request online and he got back to me within 15 minutes and arranged a visit for the next day. He arrived was very friendly and replaced the two locks with no mess or stress and provided ample spare keys, he also looked at another issue for me without warning and was able to assist me with no concern. I'd highly recommend John, he knows his stuff and is a gent.

Gain Entry.
Fantastic service from a real honest gent. I phoned him up after locking myself out of my home by not realising that I had left a key in the lock inside which prevented me from putting my key fully in. He was very busy but found the time to get to me in under an hour, within a minute he had the door open for me all I can say is I recommend this company the cost was very pleasing and he was a very friendly man. I would have no hesitation in using him again.

Unlock letterbox and change lock.
I found John on Google as a local locksmith. I was not expecting much and only needed my letterbox unlocked and then a new lock fitted. However when John arrived, (carrying quite heavy tools/ equipment- as there is no available parking on site), I was pleasantly surprised. Not only is John a lovely man in general, he is a man with an efficient, trustworthy, hard working, reliable character. If I need a locksmith again, I will definitely be calling John.
Would recommend to anyone in need/considering. Amazing service.

Lock Repair.
We had two sticking locks on our French doors. I found John on the Internet and asked him for his help and advice on the Friday. I later sent him some photos on WhatsApp and he said said he could come over on Saturday afternoon - even though he doesn't normally work weekends. In 90 minutes he had fixed both locks and only charged a very reasonable price. What an excellent craftsman with service second to none. We are most impressed.

Gain Access.
Needed to open a gun cupboard, the keys of which had been stolen by burglars. There was no need to save the cupboard once it had been opened. John and a colleague angle ground down the side of the cupboard very quickly allowing access to it's contents. Thanks guys for a job done in a short time.

Replace/Repair lock in uPVC rear door.
From phone call to completion in under an hour. The lock on our back door broke so that we were unable to lock the door or even close it firmly. John removed and replaced the broken lock gear box and adjusted the height of the door to reduce the chances of a repeat. Having checked the price of possible replacement parts (only lower quality easily available and nothing available for collection today) , I can also confirm that John's price for the job was very reasonable. I would not hesitate to use John again or recommend him.

Maidstone Locksmith's John Ayre provided an outstanding service. He was very professional and had excellent knowledge of locks. He assessed the problem very quickly and wasted no time in repairing the lock and fitting new parts which he had with him. He even cleaned up after the job. I would recommend this company very highly as an A star company.
